This paper reviews an integrated testing approach for investigating the effects of fluid dynamic phenomena on the performance of moving vehicles and their models. This approach is based upon the combination of advanced optical diagnostic techniques with computational fluid dynamic models to provide a comprehensive understanding of a vehicle's aerodynamic and hydrodynamic performance. Advanced optical diagnostic techniques that will be discussed include: pressure sensitive paint (PSP - surface flow visualization, ...
